Need Critical Answers?

While working at my church (Which I currently do not anymore) I took a class for employees under the age of 25. We studied the book Critical Choices That Change Lives by Daniel R. Castro.


My first thought was "This looks likes every other book I have read on leadership." and you are probably thinking right now the cover is not very interesting...It is a trick! I could not stop highlighting in this book. It teaches you how to be productive in decision making and how to evaluate the ins and outs of your everyday situations.

This book is excellent because of the different scenarios it takes you through and how to over come them. It is filled to the brim with amazing quotes from names such as Beethoven, Galileo, Einstein, Eleanor Roosevelt, and many more (Which also make dynamite Facebook status updates). A few of my favorites from this read are:

"In some ways, suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it find a meaning." -Viktor Frankl

"Individuals behave not in accordance with reality, but in accordance with their perception of reality." -Denis Waitley

"The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind." - William James

I HIGHLY recommend picking up this book. It is a motivator to get out there and take charge in life. Happy reading!
